Formotion Issue

[altruus]

I just ran bundle update, which updated promotion to 1.1.0.

I am now getting this error on rake

Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'ArgumentError', reason: 'uncaught throw "Unable to find Formotion" (ArgumentError)

I have tried using formotion both ways ('formotion','ProMotion-formotion') and get the same issue now matter what.

Was working great until I updated promotion

[silasjmatson]

This is an issue with Promotion-formotion, that I believe was resolved here.

You may want to comment on that thread if you're still having issues.

[silasjmatson]

Also, I think you need app.detect_dependencies = false in your Rakefile.

[altruus]

made both of those changes and now getting

Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NameError', reason: 'uninitialized constant ProMotion::TableViewCell::TableViewCellModule (NameError)

[jamonholmgren]

Actually, it's app.detect_dependencies = true on 1.1.0, false or unset on edge and beyond.

Regarding your original question, you may want to update to use the GitHub edge branch and remove detect_dependencies and use ProMotion-formotion. This combination should work. 1.1.0 is kind of in a transition period for Formotion (the last release to include built-in PM::FormotionScreen) so support is a little flakey.

EDIT: master has that feature as well, so updating for that.

EDIT 2: `master does not have that feature. My bad.

[jamonholmgren]

To update to master:

gem "ProMotion", github: "clearsightstudio/ProMotion", branch: "master"

[markrickert]

heh... i was just going to paste that :)

Lunchtime = ProMotion issue answering!

[jamonholmgren]

Let us know if it works or not, @altruus . I'll close for now but feel free to re-open.

[altruus]

I just reverted back to the old version for now to get it working again. I will try this later.

Appreciate the help.

I can't get this to work: Gemfile:

gem "ProMotion", github: "clearsightstudio/ProMotion", branch: "master"
gem 'ProMotion-formotion'
gem "bubble-wrap"
gem "sugarcube"

Rakefile:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
$:.unshift("/Library/RubyMotion/lib")
require 'motion/project/template/ios'
require "rubygems"
require 'bundler'
Bundler.require
require 'sugarcube-color'
require 'bubble-wrap/http'
require 'motion-require'
Motion::Require.all

Motion::Project::App.setup do |app|
  # Use `rake config' to see complete project settings.
  app.detect_dependencies = false
  app.name = 'ff'
end

rake output:

Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NameError', reason: 'uninitialized constant ProMotion::TableViewCell::TableViewCellModule (NameError)

[jamonholmgren]

@fuelxc , sorry about that, my bad. Switch to using edge. master does not actually have detect_dependencies = false support.

[GantMan]

@jamonholmgren I find myself in this same problem. I've done everything mentioned above.

I've flipped all the switched, and jumped through the hoops, but it just bombs out.

Unfortunately I started writing around features of ProMotion 1.1 so I'm unable to back out of the upgrade like altruus did.

I've got code if you want, but it looks to me that simply including the gem is causing the error.

[asecondwill]

same here.

gem file:

source "https://rubygems.org"

gem "ProMotion", github: "clearsightstudio/ProMotion", branch: "edge"
gem "teacup" # advanced styling
#gem "bubble-wrap" # lots of goodies
gem 'sugarcube', :require => 'sugarcube-common'
#gem "rmq" # jQuery for RubyMotion
gem "motion-pixate" # css
gem 'motion-takeoff'
gem "ProMotion-formotion"

rakefile

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
$:.unshift("/Library/RubyMotion/lib")
require 'motion/project/template/ios'
require "rubygems"
require 'bundler'
require 'motion-pixate'
require 'motion-require'
Bundler.require

Motion::Require.all

Motion::Project::App.setup do |app|
  app.detect_dependencies = false
  app.fonts = ['century-webfont.ttf']
   ....
end

error: can't convert Array into String

removing the motion-require and detect_dependencies lines gets a "uninitialized constant FormotionScreen" error

[jamonholmgren]

Okay, thanks for the reports guys. This one is going to top priority for me.

[jamonholmgren]

Pushed up a debugging app here: https://github.com/jamonholmgren/pm_issue_366

[jamonholmgren]

Okay, guys, got it fixed. View the source at the link above or follow these steps. Note that this is for PM 1.1.x and below only. PM edge and 2.0.x+ will have a different solution since it uses motion-require.

Clean your build

rake clean

Gemfile

gem "rake"
gem "ProMotion", "~> 1.1.1"
gem "formotion"
# Do NOT include ProMotion-formotion
# ...

Rakefile

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
$:.unshift("/Library/RubyMotion/lib")
require 'motion/project/template/ios'
require "rubygems"
require 'bundler'
Bundler.require

Motion::Project::App.setup do |app|
  # Use `rake config' to see complete project settings.
  app.name = 'pm_issue_366'
  app.detect_dependencies = true
end

It should now work. If not, please respond here!

[jamonholmgren]

I'm also pushing up an edge branch to that repo, demonstrating working with the PM edge branch and ProMotion-formotion.

[jamonholmgren]

That works too. Updated the README. I'm going to close this issue; feel free to re-open if you're still having problems!

[GantMan]

:star2: Works perfect!

[asecondwill]

Awesome. Thanks very much. : )
